The posting

ABOUT BASE

Base is America’s next-generation power company. We’re rebuilding the foundation of modern civilization–electricity–by deploying a vast network of distributed batteries that is transforming today’s fragile, centralized grid into a resilient and abundant system. We are engineers, operators, and creatives solving some of the most complex, interdisciplinary challenges of our time.

ABOUT THE ROLE

As Associate General Counsel on a lean Legal team, you will help shape the function while focusing principally on transactional needs across the business. You will provide legal advice on commercial contracts, including supplier agreements, and support the legal needs of a scaling organization in a risk-forward environment. You will partner with internal stakeholders to identify and mitigate legal risks across the business while supporting the development of new business lines.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

- Partner with internal stakeholders to negotiate and close partnership deals, vendor agreements, and real estate and facility leases in support of a rapidly scaling manufacturing organization.

- Lead the review and negotiation of commercial contracts, MSAs, NDAs, and other business agreements, ensuring terms are favorable and risks are well-managed.

- Develop company-wide practices and standards that mitigate legal risk across cybersecurity, employment and labor law, and consumer protection.

- Build scalable, business-centric legal frameworks that give the company the flexibility and speed to operate and grow without unnecessary friction.

- Provide legal support across corporate transactions, including fundraising activities, tax equity, and project and asset financings.

WHAT YOU'LL BRING

- 5+ years of legal experience, with a strong background in transactional work; experience in energy, utilities, or technology sectors is preferred but not necessary; startup or high-growth company experience is also preferred.

- Good judgment to operate independently within a surging business.

- Excellent communication skills, with the ability to distill complex legal concepts into clear, actionable advice.

- An entrepreneurial mindset that thrives in ambiguity, moves fast, and prioritizes impact.

- Passion for our work and a commitment to fueling American innovation, security, and prosperity through a more reliable grid for all.

ABOUT THE TEAM

Base's legal team owns the legal, regulatory, and compliance foundation of the Company, partnering closely with commercial teams to allow the business to operate and scale. The work spans commercial contracting, supplier agreements, utility regulation, financing, corporate transactions, and compliance—covering significant ground for a small team. As Base develops new markets and new products, the legal function sits at the center of pivotal decisions, engaging directly with business components and leadership, without the layers typical of a larger legal organization.

Please note: Base is a startup, which means priorities shift and evolve quickly. Your role may expand or change based on the needs of the business at any given time, so the responsibilities listed may not be exhaustive.

OUR VALUES

- First Principles Thinking: Question assumptions. Principles > rules.

- Operate at Base Pace: Focus on what matters, act quickly, and learn by doing.

- Give & Get Feedback: Be direct, be humble, and maintain a growth mindset.

- Everyone’s an Owner: Follow through on commitments and own results.

- Strong Opinions, Loosely Held: Drive clarity and make calls with imperfect information.

- Committed to the Mission: Rebuilding the grid is a big challenge. We work hard because we care deeply about the impact we’re creating. We work in-person. It’s not a 9-to-5. We are all-in.

- Fun & Optimism Coexist with Grit: Collaboration and celebration coincide with the intensity of building real things.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
